“for the most part Catholics and Protestants now acknowledge each other as fellow Christians, are often fairly relaxed about attending each other’s worship services”

I went to a Catholic Mass once. Everything seemed to be in a foreign language. I understood nothing and grew quite bored. I decided to check out a few Protestant services and finally settled in with a conservative Baptist Church.

All that being said, I think that Catholics are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met and I don’t believe they are any more or less bound for hell than anyone else.

"Everything seemed to be in a foreign language."

That was Latin, "Padre de Español."

No worries, he said all the right things.
